Florida+Keys+2013+Marine+Biology+Trip

==For the week of May 6 - May 10, a group of 16 8th Grade students, along with Mrs. Foster and Mrs. Petsa, took a trip to the Florida Keys for a marine biology exploration. Different activities included swimming with dolphins, and learning about their anatomy, snorkeling on and around the Molasses coral reef, kayaking near the mangroves, and many more activities. Later on, the students visited a sea turtle hospital in Marathon Key, and got to see firsthand the damage that has been done to the turtles at the hospital, with many of the causes relating to human actions. After visiting Florida Keys, students were bussed to the Everglades, where a nighttime tour, and a daytime tram tour concluded the trip. It was a wonderful trip, and any student interested in marine biology would enjoy this trip.==
